I don't normally have much time for floor crossers but I have a lot of respect for MP Chris d'Entremont. He was one of the few non-toxic members of Poilievre's Conservatives.
He was by far the best speaker in last session's toxic parliament.

A new wave of digital tools has emerged to help citizens monitor Trumpβs crackdown. But internet surveillance can also be used against you.
"Applications of technology that are friendly to the Administration are going unchallenged, in part because tech companies have become increasingly willing to support Trump's whims...
Only tools that exist independent of Big Tech seem like safe bets for dissent."
